I didn't like this one as much. There are always weak stories in a series. What really upset me was the way they integrated a character that was briefly mentioned in the previous books - a character that looks neither like a man nor a woman. These passages did not age well at all, with the children flopping between addressing the person and even calling them "it." Yeah, definitely would benefit from revision at this point.
